Chapter 240: The Northwest Story

Green smoke rose from the amber boiling oil, and with a clatter, a piece of snow-white dough was thrown into it with a crisp sound. This piece of dough is a peculiar one, made of countless hair-thick threads, tumbling up and down in boiling oil, but in a few moments it is dyed an attractive golden yellow.

The dumb man stood on one side of the frying pan, his hands deftly pulling the dough in his hands like a butterfly through a flower, pulling it into thin threads and gathering it into a palm-sized cake. At the same time, the probe looks at the pot, scoops up the fried dough with a spoon, and puts it back into the piece in his hand.

And Chen An took Ma Yuexiang to wait eagerly on the side, holding a tray in his hand, which already contained five pieces of spring silk cakes and four plates of sugar, cheese, spicy seeds, and cumin.

When the dough cake in the pot was dry, it was also put into the plate, and the plate was full, and Chen An walked towards the flower hall in the back hall. And Xiao Yuexiang was one step ahead of him, trotted to the flower hall first, and sat at the dinner table salivating greedily. Mrs. Yu sat on the throne and looked at her with a smile, her eyes full of doting.

Chen An walked into the hall, put the tray in his hand on the table, and sat down on the ground, and above him sat Mrs. Yu's two adopted sons, one of them described as wooden, the other honest and honest, and they were the most ordinary appearances.

Among them, the name of the wooden one is Huang Liu, who is older than Ma Rui, and is honestly sitting under Mrs. Yu at this time, waiting for Mrs. Yu and Xiao Yuexiang to take the cake first, and then they also picked up a piece of sugar dipped in sugar and brought it to their mouths.

The latter's name is Ma Zhong, the same size as Ma Rui, he was adopted by Mrs. Yu when he was very young, when the master of the Ma family was still there, he changed his surname to Ma, and in the case of Ma Rui's incompetence, Mrs. Yu really regarded him as his own child to raise, this person has thick lips and wide face, and looks kind, he saw that Huang Liu, who was on the top, took the spring silk cake in his hand, but did not move, but reserved to Chen An first to push a sentence, and then stepped forward to take a piece.

On the Social Day, it has become a traditional program for the Ma family to sit in the flower hall and taste the spring silk cakes fried by the dumb uncle. And this is also the fourth time that Chen An has participated in this traditional program of the Ma family, and at this time, it has been two full years since he escaped from Kunlun Hao Heavenly Realm and came to the Ma family for the first time. In the past two years, he has also grown from a teenager to a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy again.

Rejuvenated again, growing up again, Chen Anxin calmed down a lot, calmly accepted all this, settled down here with the encounter, stayed for two years, and he was ready to continue to stay.

It's not that he covets the comfort of the academy and forgets Xiaoguang, but that he has been delayed for so long, and what should have happened may have happened a long time ago. It's better to lie dormant again and quietly recover your strength, even if you plan for the worst, you want to avenge Xiaoguang, and you can rely on it after your strength recovers.

Just like last time, as he grows up, the martial arts that have disappeared are gradually recovering, although it can't be compared with the heyday, but he finally has some self-preservation. Of course, it is undeniable that the income from studying at Kunlun Academy is also a big help for him to recover so quickly.

Among them, especially the treatment of the blue eyes that he has been taught, and Su Han's casual guidance from time to time have benefited him a lot, not only the recovery of martial arts, but also the solution to the puzzled problems in martial arts.

Although I don't know what the plans of these two guys who hide their identities and are dormant in the academy are, Chen An is not afraid to wear shoes barefoot, anyway, it is already like this, it is better to eat the benefits in his mouth first.

In addition to the routine program of the Ma family, this club day is also to see off Chen An, and the spring break is over, and it is time for Kunlun Academy to start again. Therefore, even if there is food in front of her, this meal is quite dull, only Ma Yuexiang, who has grown into a beautiful little girl, has no heart and lungs to eat sweetly.

Mrs. Yu was worried, and she wanted to speak several times, not because she was reluctant to leave Chen An, but because of three years and three years, the vigilance in the northwest had not been removed, and the conscription order of the Spirit King still existed. At the beginning, Chen An was promised to serve as a substitute, but the premise was that he was young, and by the time he could meet the conscription standards, maybe the war in the northwest had been subsided and the conscription order was not there. But now, there is no sign of the war subsiding at all, and if it goes on like this, with Chen An's age, if two years later, the so-called war is still stalemate, Chen An is organized into the Spirit King Army, and it is a sure thing to enlist in the army, how can it not worry Mrs. Yu.

What's more, the current Spirit King's Mansion is like a gluttonous giant mouth, devouring all the new soldiers who enter it, and only entering and not leaving, and not even spitting out a single bone slag. In the market, the speculations of the people of Dousheng are varied, but the disturbance of people's hearts and minds is the same.

Chen An had some guesses about the reason for the conscription of the Spirit King, and he had long heard that the old emperor of Daqian had run out of oil and dried up, and he was all hanging in one breath, and now the undercurrent of Daqian was surging, the form was complicated, and under the competition of many parties, there was no spare strength to care about the fairy and demon war in Kunlun Haotian Realm.

In the case of the defeat of the imperial court, the spirit king, who was guarding at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, had to take up the heavy burden, and it was inevitable to expand the armament war. I'm afraid that as long as the immortals and demons in the Haotian Realm fight, Lingzhou will have to expand its army.

In fact, the actions of the two fairy and demon clans this time were the same as before, just a little temptation, but the inaction of the imperial court and the slaughter of a demon king by Chen An, the two sides became evenly matched again, and they couldn't help but want to break their wrists, so as to determine the pattern of the Haotian Realm in the next thousand years.

Chen An didn't have too many thoughts about the possible military service in two years, because once he regained his strength, even the Spirit King would have to treat him politely, and it would be impossible to use him as cannon fodder to fill the hole in the Haotian Realm.

Instead of worrying about this, it is better to think about how to restore the strength to the practical point.

In fact, Chen An has been quite comfortable these days, and the Ma family is sorry for him, so Mrs. Yu is very good to him, and he doesn't have to worry about material needs, and Su Han, a cheap classmate in Kunlun Academy, will also point him out a lot of knowledge about martial arts from time to time, and the massive collection of books in Tianque Pavilion has opened the door to a new world for him, allowing him to roam, so as to absorb knowledge, rebuild and improve the inner court, and complete the foundation.

Although he thought that the body's strength could not keep up due to the rejuvenation of the body, in terms of theoretical knowledge, Chen An has become a real master of celestial phenomena, and he is no longer the defective product that relied on brute force to break through before.

Even to some extent, Chen An, who had been personally instructed by Zhenguo Gong, the Qianyuan Immortal Emperor, was not far behind those disciples of the big factions, but he didn't know it.

Thinking back to the present, because Ma Rui didn't know where the waves had gone, the meal was a happy meal.

After the meal, everyone dispersed, Chen An also said goodbye to Mrs. Yu, tomorrow the spring break is over, he will return to the academy again, Mrs. Yu as in the past babbled to tell him a lot of things, and ordered the dumb uncle to help him prepare a deal of entanglement, until he checked several times and tossed for half a night before letting him go back.

Chen An's heart was warm, and he was not impatient at all, because it felt really good to be cared for, so good that he, a person with drifting habits, also had a strong reluctance and infinite attachment to the Ma family.

With full of warmth, Chen An walked to his bedroom, ready to sleep well, and set off early tomorrow morning, the attraction of Kunlun Academy is also great for him.

It's just that when I passed by the front hall, I accidentally saw Ma Rui, and I don't know when the goods came back.

Ma Zhong said innocently: "Brother Rui, I really can't help it, or you go to the Lu Tent Room, and he manages his mother's money." ”

"Nonsense, I need to be able to support that iron rooster, and I still need to come to you"

Ma Zhong cried with a sad face: "Brother Rui, my mother just asked me to go to the account room to help, and I didn't hand over the account to me, I really can't advance your monthly plan in advance, not to mention that you have already advanced the monthly plan for the next month and the next month, and if you advance again, your mother can't say it." ”

"Don't give me this set, don't think that you can be surnamed Ma, this Ma family will be yours in the future, I am the real blood of the Ma family, and the entire Ma family will be mine in the future, even if you go directly to the account to get the money, it is also natural, what's wrong with getting some money in advance now......"

Chen An's footsteps did not stop, and without being noticed in the slightest, he gradually moved away from the front hall, but at this time his brows gradually furrowed.

The Ma family's good family, due to the lack of permanent property, was only rated as a middle household and was not recognized by the upper class. But relying on a grain store, life is quite good, a little richer than many squires who are in the wilderness.

The affluent life, coupled with Mrs. Yu's kindness, has created such a thing as Ma Rui. The last time she insulted her mother, she directly accused her mother of cheating, and she was dragged out and beaten to death by someone in a house with strict rules, but Mrs. Yu was soft-hearted, and in the face of her own biological blood and blood, she was not embarrassed or embarrassed when this incident had not happened. Of course, it is her connivance that has made Ma Rui what he is today.

Now it's even worse, and he's starting to attack the tent, so he can't be infected with gambling like this.

A good person, once he gets involved in gambling, it will be considered a waste, and the whole family will suffer.

Chen An's eyes flashed, this home gave him too much warmth that he didn't dare to hope for, so that he couldn't help but consciously want to maintain the harmony and tranquility here, and did not allow any hidden dangers to destroy this harmony and tranquility.

It's just that what makes him frown is that Ma Rui is Mrs. Yu's only blood after all, if he kills him directly, it seems that he has a negative kindness, he has always been a man who is a kindness, a grudge is a grudge, and killing Ma Rui is clean, but how can Mrs. Yu explain there.

Forget it, shaking his head, Chen An shook off this idea, this time it was too late, and he would find a way next time he returned home. Although it is normal to be late for school, Chen An's identity is different, he is a reserve, and once he is late, it is easy to cause local officials to come home to hold him accountable, so he can only put this matter aside for the time being and solve it on the next holiday.

Besides, Mrs. Yu is just kind-hearted, her brain is not stupid, and the supervision of Ma Rui has never been relaxed for a moment, and there is a dumb uncle watching, when there will be no big mess, Chen An can be regarded as relieved to leave.

After a night of silence, on the second day, Chen An took a large package that Mrs. Yu had equipped for him and boarded the ox cart bound for Jiemen City.

In fact, Changfeng Ji did not have a direct route to Jiemen City, and it needed to turn in Lingzhou, because of waiting for the reunion of the Society, Chen An walked for several days late, but fortunately, the road was smooth, and there were no disasters on the road, and finally saw the gate of Kunlun Academy two and a half days later.

At this time, Chen An actually felt a little complacent, and he didn't feel that the existence of the two suspected grandmasters came to him inexplicably to point out that there was anything wrong with him.

Although this section looks like a so-called "fate" arrangement, it ...... Being able to become a chess piece is also a manifestation of value, people live a valuable life, shouldn't they face it with great ambition?
